What does Âme du Cœur smell like?

It opens with grapefruit, pink pepper and ginger, while cardamom and black pepper give the citrus a spicy edge. In the heart, cocoa and gaiac wood take over and the scent turns softer and sweeter. The base of vetiver, tonka bean, vanillin and cedarwood leaves a powdery, resinous woodiness.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it leans toward leisure and evening wear. Feminine leads the character votes, but masculine is not far behind, so it suits either. Burberry The Beat (Eau de Parfum) and Morph Kolonaki have a close profile.
